WEST PLAINS, MO (KAIT)- A West Plains man became an instant millionaire.

According to the Missouri Lottery, Eddie Guy became a millionaire after buying a "$1,000,000.00 Payout" scratch off ticket.

He purchased the $10.00 ticket at the Snappy Mart on Highway 63 in West Plains, while running errands with his wife.

Guys say he will continue to work and will use the money to pay off a couple of items and put the rest in savings.
